Luke Skywalker kills Han Solo's son at the climax of Episode VII
Just had a Five Guys. I kept it simple with a plain burger, mushrooms, pickles, mustard & hot sauce. Cajun fries of course..

Their names were Clive, Juan, Lee, Fred & Tarquin.

My normal order at 5 Guys is a bacon cheeseburger with tomato, pickles, onions, grilled mushrooms, grilled jalapeno peppers (gotta order them grilled!) and A1 steak sauce. I guess I can't promise that the meat itself is amazing because I load it with all that poo poo, but mmmm its a good burg.

I like their cajun fries but my high school had the exact same cajun salt mix so I usually just go for the normal fries, which are still great. I'm glad that 5 Guys tells me where the potatoes came from, it is important to be transparent with your customers and it allows us to praise or decry the place based on the quality of its 'tatoes.

generally get the double cheeseburger with onions, peppeers, and jalapenos, and it's honestly real good. get that with an order of fries and you're set calorically for the whole loving day, lol.

that said, it costs like 16 dollars :stare:

I'm a relative newbie to five guys & didn't notice the potato source thing. Cajun's a novelty for me.

Also agreeing with scatsby. Pretty sure I'm set for the day now.

Do they call it a double cheeseburger by you? I don't think its a regional thing and my 5 guys just calls their double cheeseburger a cheeseburger. The single patty option is a "little cheeseburger" i think

And yeah they're a bit pricey and the bacon cheeseburger is like 1k calories without any extra toppings. Toppings are FREE how the hell do you think I'm not going to get toppings? Load that poo poo up!

5 guys also lets you put bacon in a milkshake, and its not even a menu secret. It's straight up on the menu as an options. Flavors, and then "ADD BACON FOR $" lmao

This case of an intraperitoneal zucchini is unusual, and does raise questions as to how hard one has to push a blunt vegetable to perforate the rectum.
Delicious but loving expensive.

And their bacon is a pathetic embarrassment. I don't want that plasticky poo poo on my $12 cheeseburger.

Yeah, just a cheeseburger. I forgot about the baby thing when I ordered as haven’t had five guys in months and forgot there’s one just around the corner from where I work.

Not sure on bacon in a shake in the UK though, might freak a few people out here.

Cajun helped with that. I know what you mean though, next time I think I’ll just burg.

I had a friend on twitter exclaim that 5 Guys was pretentious and overpriced. The stores are just plain tiled and with simple wooden seating/booths, how the gently caress is that pretentious? :lol: I asked him whether he'd been to a pub and had a burger, how much he paid and whether or not it was actually any good. Turns out he's paid MORE for a pub burger and it wasn't actually any good so why the gently caress is he chatting poo poo?

Dickhead.

Anyway yeah I rate a 5 Guys.

They do it and it's pretty dang good. I wasn't convinced so just rolled with a salted caramel and a friend got the bacon version and let me try it. It's surprisingly good so I guess if you want to clog your arteries a little more then go hog wild.

"You'll never know if you can fly unless you take the risk of falling."
If you online order, you can get a THIRD PATTY and live large (for a few dollars more)

Anyway

"Cheeseburger" (which is a double)
+Extra Patty (to make it a triple)
+Fresh Jalapenos
+Fresh Onion
+Fresh Lettuce
+Ketchup

I think most burgers are good when it's "five ingredients or fewer" (Include Cheese) but what I like most about this place is if you mess up - it's because of your poor selection.

Although I miss the Worcestershire Sauce on the side.

I was wondering if it was a London thing because I had a regular cheeseburger, fries and soft drink for like 16 pounds (20 USD) which is kinda pyschotic but the burg was pretty good. Good to know it's considered expensive in States, too.

The peanuts are good but the cheese is never melted and that ruins the burgs.

Keep bustin'
Not long ago I was a huge Five Guys noob, I would order like ALL the toppings, which produced a tasty but very slippery and difficult-to-eat burger. Older and wiser, I now pick a direction and fly (jalapeno/A1/mushroom all day).

I keep telling myself I'll try a hot dog one day, but then it ends up being like a year between visits and I just want the cheeseburger.

They're good when you're in the right mood. The pricing kinda sucks but really you only need one of those enormous greasebombs, I've only eaten 2 the first time I ever went and it wasn't a wise decision

5 guys is ridiculously expensive, and is the only fast food burger to actually make me feel queasy after eating it because it was just that loving greasy. Tastes nice going down, but dear god the grease
